West Lothian nurse suspended for year after failing to give patients pain medication

A West Lothian nurse has been suspended following several incidents including wrongly stating that a nursing home patient had been administered medication.

Susan Grant received the 12-month suspension order following a hearing with the Nursing and Midwifery Council as it was revealed that during her time as a nurse at Holmesview Nursing Home, Broxburn, she failed in her duties multiple times.

As well as marking on a chart that one patient had received their medication when they had not, Grant also failed to make note of the resident refusing their medication.
